Cosmetic Dentistry Q&A

What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry consists of dental treatments that improve the function and overall appearance of your smile using cutting-edge technologies and treatments. Seattle Dentists offers highly effective methods for perfecting the structure and look of damaged teeth, replacing missing teeth, and enhancing your smile’s appearance without invasive treatments or significant downtime.

What can cosmetic dentistry change?

Cosmetic dentistry at Seattle Dentists offers an array of advantages, including teeth that are:

  • Brighter
  • Whiter
  • Stronger
  • Even-shaped
  • Straighter
  • Beautiful
  • Long-lasting
  • Less gapped

Cosmetic dentistry options can also improve the look of your gumline. 

Which cosmetic dentistry options are available?

Seattle Dentists provides an array of cosmetic dentistry options, including:

Crowns

Crowns cover damaged or decaying teeth. They consist of tooth-like caps that bond over the top surface of a tooth. Crowns can also replace missing permanent teeth when attached to an implant or bridge.

Bridges

Dental bridges replace missing or extracted teeth. They’re anchored by two crowns or multiple dental implants.

Veneers

Porcelain veneers use tooth-colored shells to cover the front and side surfaces of your teeth, creating a gorgeous smile.

Dental implants

Dental implants are metal roots your dentist inserts into your jawbone to anchor crowns, bridges, or dentures. 

Dentures

Dentures replace natural teeth with removable or permanent artificial teeth. Your dentist crafts a beautiful smile without imperfections.

Teeth whitening

Teeth whitening uses advanced Zoom! whitening technology or LaserSmile® to create a brighter, whiter smile after just one in-office treatment session. You can also choose professional-strength home whitening options.

Invisalign®

Invisalign uses clear aligners to move misaligned or crooked teeth into a more desirable position, offering straighter teeth and a gorgeous smile.

Dental bonding

Dental bonding uses tooth-colored materials to repair and improve the appearance of teeth with minor imperfections. 

Inlays and onlays

Inlays and onlays bond to damaged areas of your teeth — they’re similar to dental fillings and cover the top part of the affected tooth. 

Which cosmetic dentistry options are best for me?

To determine which cosmetic dental options are best, a Seattle Dentists provider discusses your aesthetic goals, examines your teeth and gums, and takes dental X-rays if needed. They also review your oral health history, tailor a treatment plan, and let you know what to expect. Your provider helps you navigate the process and answers any questions you may have.
